How does this compare to the PS3? Are there any more hard numbers so you can do direct comparison of the GPU in the PS4 to the PS3? I'd like to see a side by side comparison chart but it seems like they were specifically short on these kinds of things.

It is precisely a metric duckload more powerful than PS3.

Honestly, we can't do a comparison right now because they withheld specific details about the hardware. All they said is it will have 8 GB of GDDR5 unified memory, which is a new technology being developed by AMD. It will also have a Jaguar CPU, which is another new tech being developed by AMD. The speed of the processor and the details of the GPU are non-existent at the moment, other than the GPU is "specialized".
